Displacing Christian Origins - Philosophy, Secularity, and the New Testament

Zusammenfassung Traces the critical engagement of Agamben! Derrida! and Zizek! among others! back to nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century philosophers of early Christianity. This work offers a different way for critical theory to construe the relationship between the modern past and the biblical traditions to which we seem to be drawn once again.
